I bought this card to upgrade my Dell Inspirion 530s Desktop. Initial impressions are great. The card came with a low profile bracket for the HDMI, VGA, and DVI adapter outputs. The only problem with the low profile bracket is that it takes up two slots in the back of the computer. Not a huge deal as there are still 2 more open slots. The bracket and card fit perfectly in my slim tower. My Vista Windows Experience Index rating for the graphics card went from a 3.3 to a 5.2. I had an integrated graphics card Intel Accelerator 3100 I believe I think that's a huge gain for a $60 card. I haven't gotten an HD monitor yet for it, so I can comment on that but I figured people browsing would like to know a little bit about this card as there is really no information on here.

I ordered one of these cards to install into an HP Pavilion Slimline s3710t computer. That computer has a very small case which makes it fit in well with the other home entertainment components. However, it also requires a graphics card that fits into a narrow expansion slot. This card came with an alternate face plate that fits into the Slimline, but it takes up both of the Slimline's expansion slots. That works for us. We can now plug an HDMI cable from the computer to the HDTV and watch our compressed high definition videos without problem. I'm very happy with the purchase.

I have a low profile Dell and needed a card that fits in the narrow case and worked with Windows 7 RC. This card did the trick. Display is hi-rez and good performance rating.

Works good for the gaming I'm doing. Two stars down as I'm using it for GTA IV and that's the only compatible game unless I replace my computer with a proper one.
